Speaking exclusively to SciFiNow, True Blood Season 7 star Kristin Bauer van Straten filled us in what the final run of the HBO hit has in store for the infinitely quotable vampire queen.

“The first few episodes this year, Pam is searching for her maker and it takes her around the globe to some very interesting places,” she reveals.

“She’s not in Bon Temps like everyone else and while they’re fighting for their lives and digging deep into their own characters, that’s exactly what Pam is doing.

“She makes the choice to leave her progeny for her maker, so we get to see yet another layer of Pam of how far she will go in this search for Eric. There’s some incredibly interesting situations that she gets in.

“There’s also going to be more flashbacks this year and those are always enormous fun. It’s wonderful playing an immortal character and getting to live out different decades.”

The final series of True Blood mightgive Bauer van Straten a chance to for her uber-cool vampire vixen to go out all fangs blazing!

“Before this year, so I don’t give anything away, we realised that Pam had never killed anybody, which seemed so wrong!” exclaims the star.

“Everyone else has been getting to be cool and murderous and killing – only bad people, of course – but Pam has never killed anyone onscreen! Isn’t that insane?! She’s supposed to be so bad-ass! So I put in a word to the writers last year and said, ‘Before we end this, I would at least like to kill one person onscreen.’”
